  • Life Cycle Assessment a Tool for Strategic Decision-Making 3-4 November 2011
    Life Cycle Assessment a tool for strategic decision-making 3-4 November 2011 Espace International, Lille, France Two days of co-learning between business, public authorities, researchers and experts around Life Cycle Assessment and its applications in order to: Build and enrich your strategy Anticipate future evolutions and legislation Learn the latest LCA trends Develop partnerships Online registration at www.avnir.org Why LCA? Life Cycle Assessment is a methodology to evaluate the environmental impact of a product, service or process, from the extraction of raw materials to end of its life. It enables companies and local authorities to: anticipate regulation better manage risks and costs associated with the life cycle of its activities improve the purpose and quality of products t and services encourage sustainable production and consumption measure the environmental benefits of products and services, and anticipate market expectations Why the [avniR] Conference? The [avniR] Conference aims to bring together large companies and SMEs, public authorities and international experts to: be up to date on latest developments in environmental labelling, where France is leading the way better understand client and supplier expectations regarding LCA help you identify tools tailored to your sector and situation be inspired by good practices of companies and public authorities having implemented LCA integrate the right environmental criteria into your purchasing policy share experiences in a solutions-oriented environment P.2 Who will participate? Companies, especially SMEs, will learn the latest developments of LCA to better address the expectations of their suppliers and customers, and also discover the sector-specific LCA tools at their disposal to initiate and enhance their sustainable development strategy.

  • The University of Lille
    OECD/IMHE Quality Assessment - Lille UNIVERSITY OF LILLE III-CHARLES DE GAULLE FRANCE FROM PRACTICES TO PERSPECTIVES* Gérard Losfeld and Anne-Sophie Vérin Universities are finding themselves increasingly beset by pressures from the outside world. They are having to contend with a considerable increase in student enrolment, and this large number of students arriving at the University is being further accentuated by the economic crisis. With increasing unemployment, students are enrolling for university in ever-increasing numbers and are following everlengthening courses; this is prompting the establishment of new degrees, a demand also articulated by employers seeking to professionalise certain streams so that they can meet their needs more effectively. In order to adapt to these changes, lawmakers have laid down rules that the University has to comply with, and the institution then determines its policy within the terms of the regulation and the agreed contractual policy. In this setting, evaluation practices are developed in response to State impetus, and they are being given increasingly serious consideration in institutions where evaluation may be seen as a permanent tool with which to attain desired objectives. The OECD/IMHE project involves an examination of the effects of quality assessment on management and decision-making. This is where the paradox arises: the notion of quality is located in a ‘liberal’ setting (the need to reconcile a marketing approach and a concern with rationalising costs), yet it also embraces the State University’s need to maintain, or even further develop, its public service role, even if this means importing some (‘controlled’) liberal methods. For reasons examined below, the link of direct causality contained in the OECD/IMHE project can be turned on its head.

  • Call on the European Union to Create High-Quality Dedicated and Embedded SSH Research Opportunities in FP9
    27 April 2018 Call on the European Union to create high-quality dedicated and embedded SSH research opportunities in FP9 The undersigned universities, from countries leading in Social Sciences & Humanities (SSH) in Horizon 2020 research and innovation, call on the three EU institutions to assure that researchers from the entire range of SSH disciplines can fully participate in the 9th EU Framework Programme for Research & Innovation (FP9). European citizens have indicated in the Special Eurobarometer about The Future of Europe that they would like the EU to remedy “unemployment, social inequalities, migration, terrorism and security issues, the public debt of Member States, insufficient economic growth and the ageing population”. Many of these societal issues are at the heart of SSH research. SSH also plays an important role in disruptive innovation and social acceptance of science and technology. In order to face the grand challenges and to contribute responsibly to the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Europe needs these disciplines to fully unfold their capacity. The recommendation in the Lamy report to give SSH researchers an initiating and leading role for some of the FP9 missions therefore seems crucial. The undersigned universities call on the three EU institutions, i.e. Commission, Parliament and Council, to act upon their statements. First, the Commission states that 59% of the H2020 budget devoted to SSH (i.e. SC6) is spent on topics and activities other than SSH research, such as ICT research, innovation policy and other actions. It also acknowledges that the quality of SSH integration is “highly uneven across H2020”, while SSH deserves an improved integration within SSH-flagged projects, both quantitatively (involvement of more SSH disciplines) as well as qualitatively (strengthening their role).
